Man spends 267 days sailing solo around the world: The compelling power of character in chaos

Last updated on: July 30, 2020 at 5:30 am   By Jim Denison

Bert terHart set sail from British Columbia last year in late October on a solo journey to circumnavigate the globe. He arrived back on July 18, where he was welcomed by family and friends. And where he was promptly thrust into the reality of life in a pandemic. “In a nutshell, I’ve been sequestered completely, totally isolated from the rest of the world,” terHart said of his voyage. Astronauts on the International Space Station orbiting thirty-five miles above the earth... Read more

Barbecue Baptist Church delivers meals, hope, and levity: How being “guests” liberates us to speak biblical truth

Last updated on: July 29, 2020 at 5:48 am   By Jim Denison

Remember when you couldn’t find toilet paper? Chad McMillan, the pastor of students, evangelism, and missions at First Baptist Church in Navasota, Texas, had a novel idea. He put his pastor on a trailer surrounded by plexiglass and armed him with a T-shirt gun to distribute toilet paper rolls wrapped with Bible verses. It went so well, they added a pulpit, piano, and sound system to do pop-up worship services while flinging the TP. Then McMillan started Barbecue Baptist Church.... Read more

John Lewis and the courage to lead: The truth about masks, public worship services, and conspiracy theories

Last updated on: July 28, 2020 at 5:30 am   By Jim Denison

The body of Rep. John Lewis is lying in state today at the US Capitol in Washington, DC as lawmakers and the public pay their respects. According to congressional historians, he is the first Black lawmaker to lie in state at the US Capitol Rotunda. As I noted following Rep. Lewis’s death, his original intention was to become a preacher. As a boy, he was responsible for taking care of the chickens on the family farm. He fed them and... Read more

Are these the “last days”? Why evangelicals are losing the rhetorical high ground and two ways to respond

Last updated on: July 27, 2020 at 5:30 am   By Jim Denison

Are these the “last days”? In Luke 21, Jesus made three predictions. One: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom” (v. 10).  Russian President Vladimir Putin said yesterday that the Russian Navy would be armed with hypersonic nuclear strike weapons and underwater nuclear drones. Such weapons would be difficult for the US to track and intercept.  Experts say the risk of military conflict between the US and China is higher than ever. After the closing of the Chinese... Read more

Lightning strikes the Statue of Liberty: The path to liberty that stands the storms of life

Last updated on: July 24, 2020 at 5:30 am   By Jim Denison

Lightning struck the Statue of Liberty Wednesday night, but she withstood the storm and still stands tall this morning. I remember vividly my first visit to America’s shining symbol of freedom. I thought of the millions of men, women, and children for whom she was their first impression of our nation. They came to America because of a promise based on the Judeo-Christian worldview that values every life as created in God’s image.  The Declaration of Independence claimed it to... Read more
